1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The persistent contamination of water resources by organic dyes and inorganic pollutants presents serious environmental and public health concerns. However, conventional photocatalysts are hindered by rapid charge recombination, limited redox capability, and inefficient interfacial charge transfer, while traditional heterojunctions struggle to simultaneously deliver strong oxidation and reduction potentials. Herein, a nature-inspired all-solid-state, plasmon-assisted interface-engineered Z-scheme photocatalyst comprising ZnO/ZnS core-shell nanorods (NRs) on an Ag seed layer is reported to address the limitations of conventional photocatalyst. The metallic Ag seed layer acts as a localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) platform, facilitating electron injection into the ZnO NRs core and suppressing photogenerated charge recombination. A controlled ZnS shell thickness (∼20 nm, obtained by 1.5 h sulfidation) optimizes interfacial charge transfer, promotes selective recombination of low-energy carriers, and maximizes solid-state Z-scheme efficiency. Trapping experiments indicate that
